December 23 | Shanghai

Time: December 23, 14:00-17:00
Location: 16th Floor, Building C, Bund SOHO, Huangpu District, Shanghai, PingCAP (Exit 7, Yuyuan Station, Line 10/14, about an 8-minute walk)
Topic: Database Operations Chat, Discussing Disaster Recovery Practices!
Regional Organizer: @xuexiaogang

The recent outage event of a certain cloud provider has sparked a lot of discussion about disaster recovery. If a data center or server fails, what disaster recovery solutions can ensure data security and quick recovery? Besides regular backups, what other preventive measures can avoid data loss and failures? In terms of automated recovery, what automated tools or processes can simplify and speed up the database recovery process? With these questions in mind, we hope to provide some tips to community users through this offline exchange event, sharing our experiences with emergency failures and disaster recovery practices!

Talk Overview:

10+ years of database experience: The money we lost during failures (Xue Xiaogang, Chief Database Expert at Ouyeel)
Various multi-center solutions, there’s always one for you (Wang Jun, a TiDB enthusiast since 2018 with 5+ years of experience)
More talks are being collected!

On the eve of Christmas, come to the PingCAP Shanghai office and celebrate with community friends!

January X, 2024 | Beijing

Do you remember the fireside tea (wine) party we held in Beijing last year? This year, we have invited PingCAP’s founder, Cui Qiu, as the host of this fireside chat to discuss the cases PingCAP has done overseas, the impressive developments in overseas tech circles, and the cool things we plan to do in the future. For us, it’s also an opportunity to hear from new and old friends about their experiences over the past year, helping us move forward together!

New and old friends, we look forward to seeing you in person!
